In this talk, you will discover how implicit conversions and parameters work in Scala. We will explore resolution rules and their precedence and once you have a good understanding of that, you will learn about design patterns – where they can come in handy as well as scenarios where they should definitely be avoided. At the end of this session, you will have a better idea about the power and the responsibility that comes with the 'i-word'.
Key takeaways:
Understanding of implicit scope and resolution rules
Heuristic to judge the impact and implicit definition has in your codebase
Design patterns with implicit parameters and conversions
